| Johnnie Cox will be playing steel with Connie Smith this Saturday, September 21 in Weatherford, TX (just west of Ft Worth a few miles). It will be at the Texas Opry Theatre in Weatherford with 2 shows -- 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM. This is a 'steel players' dream as Connie Smith really appreciates the steel guitar...especially when the steel player is Johnnie Cox!! |

I am envious of anyone who gets to hear them. Also, I would love to hear a duet between Connie Smith and George Jones.
Actually I would love to hear Connie Smith on a duet with anyone or alone. She is my alltime favourite female singer. |

I think Connie Smith is one of the all time great pure country female singers. Her incredible country voice and Johnnie Cox's aggressive steel playing is going to make a super event of pure country music with lots of hot steel guitar.

| Hey Joan...I'm trusting a lot of steelplayers will come out to hear Johnny with Connie Smith in Weatherford, TX. Yes, we wish you were able to come and have a great time of music, fun and relaxation. We'll miss you but we'll take care of Johnny and leave some 'icecream' for your visit!

Johnny's been needing a "break" for a long time, so this trip will be good for him. Next time, I think I'll stow away on the bus somewhere..should be lots of places to hide on those things. Maybe down there with the guitars and amps  Tell "big brother" Pat I said "hey"..Have a great time..

It WAS a GREAT concert. Connie was in good form, as usual and what can you say? Johnny was as good as he always is. It was a pleasurable evening.

If Connie Smith is ever in your city you really need to go to the show. |
